Definitions
- the present invention relates to lifters used for moving coils of hot-rolled steel, and in particular to an electromagnetic lifter provided with a safety device.
- coils of hot-rolled steel consist of a spiral-wound strip of electromagnetic sheet having a length up to 3000-3500 m and a weight ranging from 15 to 45 t, the spiral shape being maintained by a containment strapping.
- a coil acts like a large spring whose external turns are subjected to a strong dynamism owing to the intrinsic elasticity of the system, whereby the coil can not be considered as an integral block.
- the sheet is wound at high temperature (500-600°C and even more) and subsequently the coil is laid on the ground for the cooling phase.
- the sheet gets shorter, its thickness gets smaller and the last turns are loaded with an energy that tends to move the sheet outwards. This happens because the natural shrinkage process can not take place completely since the coil is strapped with its turns tightly wound, and is laid on the ground or in anti-roll stalls at an horizontal axis position when it is still very hot.
- lifters used to transport coils are mainly of the mechanical type in that they guarantee a safe lifting of the coil regardless of the deformed grip area and of the dynamism of the spiral structure.

- an electromagnet can compact the loosened turns of a coil in the region of its polar expansions, even merely through its own weight.
- the magnetic flux linked between the electromagnet and the coil is sufficient to achieve an anchorage force greater than twice the coil weight, so that it suitable to lift and transport the coil according to the EN 13155 standard.

- the problem of the electromagnetic lifter is that of detecting in the initial lifting step the elasticity of the turns affected by the magnetic field.

- Coils 10, 11 can detect the magnetic dynamism in the initial lifting step since they are crossed by the flux lines generated by solenoids 8, 9 and linked to coil 4, and therefore are capable of detecting the amount of the decrease of said linked flux lines (negative magnetic dynamism) caused by the mechanical dynamism of the turns of coil 4 when it is lifted.

- the control unit 16 checks that the overall magnetic dynamism of the system remains below the threshold set to authorize the transport, also in this case indicatively ranging from 3% to 10%. As a matter of fact, if the initial loosening of the turns remains within the parameters the phenomenon stops, whereby an overall decrease in the linked flux lower than, for example, another 5% allows to safely perform the transport. It should be noted that the safety and magnetic dynamism coefficients taken into consideration can be changed according to the needs of the case being considered.
- the operating method of the electromagnetic lifter according to the present invention can therefore be summarized by the following steps:
Description
- The present invention relates to lifters used for moving coils of hot-rolled steel, and in particular to an electromagnetic lifter provided with a safety device.
- It is known that coils of hot-rolled steel consist of a spiral-wound strip of electromagnetic sheet having a length up to 3000-3500 m and a weight ranging from 15 to 45 t, the spiral shape being maintained by a containment strapping. Exactly due to this nature, a coil acts like a large spring whose external turns are subjected to a strong dynamism owing to the intrinsic elasticity of the system, whereby the coil can not be considered as an integral block.
- These dynamic aspects occur in that the sheet is wound at high temperature (500-600°C and even more) and subsequently the coil is laid on the ground for the cooling phase. During said phase, the sheet gets shorter, its thickness gets smaller and the last turns are loaded with an energy that tends to move the sheet outwards. This happens because the natural shrinkage process can not take place completely since the coil is strapped with its turns tightly wound, and is laid on the ground or in anti-roll stalls at an horizontal axis position when it is still very hot.
- The combination of these factors causes in the coil a loosening of the turns and a physical deformation concentrated in the coil portion facing upwards, and this deformed region coincides with the grip area by the lifter intended to transfer the coil. For this reason, lifters used to transport coils are mainly of the mechanical type in that they guarantee a safe lifting of the coil regardless of the deformed grip area and of the dynamism of the spiral structure.
- However, it would be preferable to use electromagnetic lifters that are more efficient and faster than mechanical lifters yet they are affected by the above-mentioned particular characteristics of the coils of hot-rolled steel.
- In fact, a standard electromagnetic lifter is suitable for the purpose as long as in the coils do not occur those mechanical dynamisms that may trigger magnetic dynamisms that lead to a reduction of the lifting force, up to the detachment of the load during transport, but this phenomenon is presently impossible to foresee with conventional lifters.
- In the initial magnetization step an electromagnet can compact the loosened turns of a coil in the region of its polar expansions, even merely through its own weight. In this way, the magnetic flux linked between the electromagnet and the coil is sufficient to achieve an anchorage force greater than twice the coil weight, so that it suitable to lift and transport the coil according to the EN 13155 standard. A flux meter possibly located in the close proximity of the polar expansions of said electromagnet would therefore detect during the transitory magnetization step a flux value and thus a magnetic induction value suitable to comply with said safety standard.
- The problem of the electromagnetic lifter is that of detecting in the initial lifting step the elasticity of the turns affected by the magnetic field. In fact said mechanical dynamism can cause a more or less marked detachment of the external turns actually causing a decrease in the cross-sectional area of the flux lines, with consequent quadratic decrease in the anchorage force of the electromagnet that is proportional to the square of the induction. This combined mechanical-magnetic effect between the coil and the electromagnet is defined hereafter "magnetic dynamism" for the sake of simplicity.
- If this magnetic dynamism exceeds a critical threshold, it is very probable that the loosening of the steel turns of the coil will continue thus causing a further decrease in the linked flux lines. This can in turn trigger a chain reaction of further detachments and decreasing of flux lines up to making the lifting dangerous and not compliant with the EN 13155 standard, with the clear risk of load loss during the transport phase.
- The problem may arise even if the magnetic dynamism occurs only at one of the polar expansions, since in said case the other polar expansion that generates a greater lifting force also generates a lever effect against the area of lower induction. This can trigger the accelerated loosening of the turns on the same side that already suffers from the magnetic dynamism, greatly increasing the probability of detachment of the coil.
- Therefore the object of the present invention is to provide an electromagnetic lifter which is free from said drawbacks. This object is achieved by means of an electromagnetic lifter comprising a safety device suitable to check in the initial lifting step the magnetic dynamism of each polar expansion as well as the overall magnetic dynamism of the lifter prior to authorizing the transport manoeuvre. Other advantageous features of the present lifter are disclosed in the dependent claims.
- The fundamental advantage of the present lifter stems from the fact that it can perform the transfer of hot-rolled steel coils in a condition of absolute safety, thus combining the practicality of electromagnetic lifters with the safety of mechanical lifters.
- A second significant advantage results from the fact that said safety is obtained through a simple, inexpensive and reliable device.
- Further advantages and characteristics of the lifter according to the present invention will be clear to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description of an embodiment thereof, with reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
-
Fig.1 is a diagrammatic front sectional view of a lifter according to the invention; -
Fig.2 is a view similar to the preceding one that diagrammatically shows the operation of the lifter; -
Fig:3 is a view similar to the preceding one that shows the force system in a condition of load engagement; -
Fig.4 is a view similar to the preceding one that shows the force system in a condition of asymmetric magnetic dynamism; and -
Fig.5 is a view similar toFig.2 that diagrammatically shows the operation of the lifter in case of symmetric magnetic dynamism. - Referring first to
Figs. 1-3 , there is seen that an electromagnetic lifter according to the present invention conventionally includes twopolar expansions horizontal axis coil 4, connected through aferromagnetic circuit 5 and twocores solenoids cores coil 4. It should be noted that althoughelectromagnet 1 described here is preferably bipolar said choice is not binding, since magnets with different numbers of poles properly provided with the required devices can be manufactured by the same principle. - The novel aspect of the present lifter resides in the presence of two
detection coils cores polar expansions coils respective plates coil 4 that in some cases is transported still hot. -
Coils solenoids coil 4, and therefore are capable of detecting the amount of the decrease of said linked flux lines (negative magnetic dynamism) caused by the mechanical dynamism of the turns ofcoil 4 when it is lifted. This information is transmitted to two respective A/D converters control unit 16 whose purpose is to grant or deny the authorization for transport. - The operation of the present lifter is therefore quite simple and effective and is readily understood: the
polar expansions contact coil 4 to be lifted and, upon activation ofsolenoids coil 4 as shown inFig.2 . At the beginning of the lifting step, in the absence of magnetic dynamism, the system balance condition is illustrated by the force system ofFig.3 . - In said system, Fa indicates the anchorage force of pole a (N pole in the example of
Fig.2 ), Fb indicates the anchorage force of pole b (S pole in the example ofFig.2 ), Fsa and Fsa indicate the vertical lifting components of said anchorage forces, L1 and L2 indicate the lever arms measuring the distance between the barycentric axis of the load (P) and said vertical components Fsa and Fsb that hold half load (P/2) each. -
Fig.4 shows a similar force system in condition of asymmetric magnetic dynamism, for example greater at pole b. In such a case it is Fa>Fb, therefore also Fsa>Fsb and Fsa*L1>Fsb*L2 whereby the lever effect against pole b can trigger the accelerated loosening of the turns on the same side greatly increasing the probability of load detachment. - During the first lifting step, the
control unit 16 therefore performs a comparison of the magnetic dynamism occurring at the individual polarities on the basis of the data received from thedetection coils converters coils - On the contrary, a decrease in the linked flux that remains at a value below the alarm threshold does not trigger further detachments of sheet turns and blocks the magnetic dynamism, maintaining an anchorage force such that the transport can be made safely according to the provisions of the EN 13155 standard.
- Where the two signals detected by
coils Fig.5 , in the immediately subsequent phase thecontrol unit 16 checks that the overall magnetic dynamism of the system remains below the threshold set to authorize the transport, also in this case indicatively ranging from 3% to 10%. As a matter of fact, if the initial loosening of the turns remains within the parameters the phenomenon stops, whereby an overall decrease in the linked flux lower than, for example, another 5% allows to safely perform the transport. It should be noted that the safety and magnetic dynamism coefficients taken into consideration can be changed according to the needs of the case being considered. - The operating method of the electromagnetic lifter according to the present invention can therefore be summarized by the following steps:
- a) activating the
magnetization solenoids - b) checking that the flux linked to
coil 4 to be transported is sufficient to achieve an anchorage force greater than twice the weight ofcoil 4; - c) initially lifting
coil 4 and simultaneously comparing the magnetic dynamism occurring at the individual polarities to check that the difference between the values detected bycoils - d) in case of negative outcome of the check, issuing a signal for stopping the lifting operation and returning the load to the ground, and in case of positive outcome of the check performing a second check that the overall magnetic dynamism of the system is below a second preset threshold;
- e) in case of negative outcome of the second check, issuing a signal for stopping the lifting operation and returning the load to the ground, and in case of positive outcome of the check issuing a signal of authorization to the transport of
coil 4. - It is clear that the above-described and illustrated embodiment of the lifter according to the invention is just an example susceptible of various modifications. In particular,
converters control unit 16.
